If not for her sake, do it for mine.
I was up writing last night and had the TV on the whole time. I think it was on MSNBC, which I normally don't watch, but was too lazy to look for the remote control. But, the features went something like this: Democrats, Britney Spears, Obama vs. Hillary, Britney Spears, Republican candidates, a short piece on Paris Hilton, then back to Hillary and Obama, and finally Britney Spears before I got up and turned the TV off.
I don't normally care what celebrities are doing, but I think Britney is about one step from going over the edge. Why all this media obsession over one pop star?
I admit it. I feel bad for the girl. I can't imagine having the most intimate details of my life being discussed on TV every 10 minutes. The paparazzi constantly hound her waiting for her to slip up. Hell, they WANT her to slip up! I saw the video where she was carrying her baby and she tripped and almost dropped him. The press had a field day over this, but what no one mentioned is that when you watch the video, photographers are crowding around her so closely that it's probably the reason why she tripped (I wouldn't be surprised if someone stuck a foot out either). I mean who doesn't want to see Britney drop her baby? That's good entertainment there! Plus, there's always a lucky individual who might make heaps of money from selling that photo or video.
So now she's the worst mother in the world, because in a moment of desperation to get away from obnoxious photographers, she made a stupid mistake and held her son in her lap while driving. I think I heard something about K-Fed, the turd who left his pregnant girlfriend for Britney, getting custody of the kids because of it. I don't have the details on that so I may be off a bit, but I don't really follow it that closely anyway.
I also read that she shaved her head after splitting with K-Fed. What woman hasn't done something drastic to her hair after a breakup? Seriously, name one woman who hasn't done something like that. I've done it. I don't know why, but after a bad relationship women have an uncontrollable urge to get their hair changed. Everyone thought she was on drugs when she did that, and maybe she was, but shit, I'd be on drugs too if I were Britney.
I paid attention to the TV last night only long enough to find out she just got out of the hospital. I don't know what kind of hospital. All I know is that I don't need to know this information.
After continuously harassing and trashing her, what would the media do if Britney got tired of it all and took the final plunge? They would have another fun-filled day of pretending to be sad that America's Pop Princess offed herself. Then, they would spend the next two weeks analyzing how something so terrible could happen. It's a sick fucking world and the media are happy campers.
It's also sad that Heath Ledger died. I can only assume that Howard K. Stern had something to do with it, since it was a drug overdose and all. I'll even sell that one to you, MSNBC, and all the rest of you subspecies. You can just refer to me as your "unnamed source" after you fork over my money.
